Implementation of professional learning communities in the school context

By Christine Huber

School administrators face the major challenge of implementing educational policy guidelines such as quality management (SQA), the concept of the new secondary school, etc., on the one hand, and pursuing continuous school development on the other. Numerous studies on school effectiveness and school development research demonstrate the positive impact of professional learning communities on teaching and staff development in schools. They are therefore considered to be drivers of school and quality development, which is why their introduction in schools is considered beneficial. This research project aims to identify the conditions that promote and inhibit the implementation and development of professional learning communities from the perspective of school administrators and teachers. The main focus is on the importance of school administration in this process. In the qualitative study, interviews were conducted with school administrators and teachers. The results obtained were combined with theoretical findings and used to derive measures and recommendations for school administrators for the implementation and development of professional learning communities.
